Bonhams โข Art Auctions โข London ๐ฌ๐ง, by Deleted on Feb 19, 2019 21:30:33 GMT 1, I cant recall precisely when it was, early 2015 methinks, but he shipped loads of stuff from under his bed and CWSB was one of them. The auction caused the now routine hike in prices at all the usual suspect galleries; every Banksy changed to POA at Hang Up for a day and when prices were shown again they were somewhat inflated.

Bonhams โข Art Auctions โข London ๐ฌ๐ง, by sl1973 on Feb 20, 2019 17:14:36 GMT 1, I also was lucky to get the chance to buy a Grappling Hook and recently got it appraised by Phillips and Sothebys. Neither seemed to have much insight on the piece. Phillips gave a 6 to 8k gbp estimate (LOL) and Sotheby's 30k-50k gbp.
Sotheby's offered placing in the prints and editions sale auction in September, which possibly would not have such a deep pocketed audience.
It does not surprise me that this is at Bonhams as the others so far for me have not been offering good sales, estimates or sellers fees.
What would be the best strategy to sell now that one is already on the second market? hold onto for a long time or sell while the market is very strong for Banksy?

Will be interesting to see what happens with this sale, as you say for a Banksy and auction houses this piece is unprecedented and in uncharted territory.
My guess is on this occasion it will go very high as the post war / contemporary art team at Bonhams have done a very good job on the presentation and marketing.
Who knows how Phillips got to a 6-8k estimate since I also told them what the retail cost was!? Haha
Just saying though, when folk on here are wondering why someone is selling in a Bonhams sale rather than say a Phillips sale - that given does have some very cool art - there perhaps is your reason. Some mildly clueless specialists.

Yeah, fair enough, thanks for letting us know, explains a lot. 6-8k, quite embarrassing, was this over the phone, or did they see it? Who was it at Phillips?

I think this is a nice curiosity. An aberration from his usual oeuvre. Having said that, Dismaland featured many โsculpturesโ, and his Guantanamo/Disneyland stunt, well, it depends whether bonuses have been paid. It could go either way. I wouldnโt thank you for it.

I think most would opt for a GWB or rare NOLA as I would. That being said if two wealthy people are interested anything could happen.

My best guess is that 75% of people who bought this did so primarly with the idea of cashing in quickly. Whether there's depth in Banksy market to buy ~20 of them for twice what it was initially sold for remains to be proven... Good luck

It seems 99% of these were purchased to flip, so I doubt there will be a shortage over the next 12 month's

If anyone did actually buy these just to flip (and clearly whomever listed in the auction did) they'd be smart to hold on as long as possible. These are some of the strongest pieces he's released to market in the last decade. Of course, it depends on your taste, some people like having a little girl watching a balloon fly away on their wall, some of us prefer a bit more depth.

99% May have been slightly over egging it ๐คฃ, but I sure most were purchased with that intention.
What's the point in appraisal if you just got a COA ?

I know of a few who did so for that exact reason...

Not sure that's quite up to 99% but my maths could be wrong If anyone did actually buy these just to flip (and clearly whomever listed in the auction did) they'd be smart to hold on as long as possible. These are some of the strongest pieces he's released to market in the last decade. Of course, it depends on your taste, some people like having a little girl watching a balloon fly away on their wall, some of us prefer a bit more depth. 99% May have been slightly over egging it ๐คฃ, but I sure most were purchased with that intention. What's the point in appraisal if you just got a COA ? Another way to put it is that many people who ended up buying it did so because they felt it was a lifetime luck to be offered to actually do so rather than because they were madly in love with it (as carl Cashman & eschiff genuinely are)... I know of a few who did so for that exact reason...

Bonhams โข Art Auctions โข London ๐ฌ๐ง, by eschiff on Feb 21, 2019 11:15:22 GMT 1, We've seen one come up for sale since they were sold from the hotel, one other guy on this thread got his appraised.

What's the point in appraisal if you just got a COA ? No I agree, getting appraisal probably indicates they were looking to sell it as well. Again, if someone did buy to sell a year later, nothing wrong with that but I think that a) like with any Banksy piece, the longer you hold onto it the more prices could increase and b) if you're flipping it at the first possible post I'm guessing you won't be getting many more emails from PC about winning any lotteries.

Not typical of the artists genre Not the artists usual medium Religious imagery Itโs an edition not an original. I think the estimate is extremely bullish While editions of Lenin on roller blades are 100k.... this will/should be double that.

In a perverse way i hope it flops, would be a shame to see loads of these hit the market
